| ABSTRACT: | Vancouver, British Columbia- (Newsfile Corp. - January 29, 2018) - SilverCrest Metals Inc. (TSXV: SIL) (OTCQX: SVCMF) ("SilverCrest" or the "Company") is pleased to announce additional Phase II drill results for the Las Chispas Property (the "Property") located in Sonora, Mexico. Step out drilling of the Babicanora Vein continues to intersect high-grade mineralization with an increase in the reported high-grade footprint from 1,000 to 1,300 metres along strike length (see attached Figures). There are 19 known epithermal veins on the Property, nine of which have been drilled, consisting of the Babicanora, Babicanora Footwall, Las Chispas, Giovanni, La Blanquita, William Tell, Varela, Granaditas and Amethyst veins. SilverCrest has intersected high-grade silver-gold mineralization in each of the nine veins drilled to date. Five to six of these veins will be included in the upcoming maiden resource estimate to be announced inQ1 2018. N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng and CEO, remarked, "Our drilling on the Babicanora Vein continues to expand the high-grade precious metal mineralization along a drill-tested strike length of 1.3 kilometres. The southeast extension of the Babicanora Vein, known as "Area 51" after the discovery hole, appears to be expanding in height to over 200 metres and remains open along strike and to depth. Area 51 has multiple bonanza grade intercepts within its near-surface high-grade footprint. We are only weeks away from finishing our final drill holes for incorporation into the anticipated Las Chispas maiden resource estimate." The most significant result for this release was returned from Hole BA17-63, which intersected 3.5 metres (true width) grading 41.05 grams per tonne ("gpt") gold and 1,074.5 gpt silver, or 4,153 gpt silver equivalent ("AgEq", based on 75 (Ag):1 (Au) and 100% metallurgical recovery). | |
